Paperback. Condition: Very Good. E2 - A paperback book SIGNED and inscribed by Naomi Shihab Nye to previous owner on the half-title page in very good condition that has some bumped corners, light discoloration and shelf wear. American Poets Continuum Series, No. 170. 9"x6", 124 pages. Satisfaction Guaranteed. Naomi Shihab Nye is an American poet, editor, songwriter, and novelist. Born to a Palestinian father and an American mother, she began composing her first poem at the age of six. In total, she has published or contributed to over 30 volumes of poetry. Her works include poetry, young-adult fiction, picture books, and novels. Nye received the 2013 NSK Neustadt Prize for Children's Literature in honor of her entire body of work as a writer, and in 2019 the Poetry Foundation designated her the Young People's Poet Laureate for the 2019-21 term. Nye characterizes herself as a "wandering poet," and says that much of her poetry is inspired by her childhood memories and her travels. She considers San Antonio her current home, "San Antonio feels most like home as I have lived here the longest. But everywhere can be home the moment you unpack, make a tiny space that feels agreeable". San Antonio is the inspiration behind many of her poems. Both roots and sense of place are major themes in her body of work. Her poems are frank and accessible, often making use of ordinary images in startling ways. Her ability to enter into foreign experiences and chronicle them from the inside is reminiscent of Elizabeth Bishop, while her simple and direct "voice" is akin to that of her mentor William Stafford. Her first collection of poems, Different Ways to Pray, explored the theme of similarities and differences between cultures, which would become one of her lifelong areas of focus. Her other books include poetry collections 19 Varieties of Gazelle: Poems of the Middle East, Red Suitcase, and Fuel; a collection of essays entitled Never in a Hurry; a young-adult novel called Habibi (the autobiographical story of an Arab-American teenager who moves to Jerusalem in the 1970s) and picture book Lullaby Raft, which is also the title of one of her two albums of music. (The other is called Rutabaga-Roo; both were limited-edition.) Nye's first two chapter books, Tattooed Feet (1977) and Eye-to-Eye (1978), are written in free verse and possess themes of questing. Nye's first full-length collection, Different Ways to Pray (1980), explores the differences between and shared experiences of cultures from California to Texas and from South America to Mexico. Hugging the Jukebox (1982), a full-length collection that won the Voertman Poetry Prize, focuses on the connections between diverse peoples and on the perspectives of those in other lands. Yellow Glove (1986) presents poems with more tragic and sorrowful themes. According to the Poetry Foundation, Fuel (1998) may be Nye's most acclaimed volume and ranges over a variety of subjects, scenes and settings. Nye's poem Famous was referenced and quoted in full by Judge Andre Davis in his concurring opinion on the case G. G. v. Gloucester County School Board. Her poem So much happiness was included in the 'Happiness' edition of Parabola. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Signed by Author.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First Edition. C2 - A first edition (stated with complete numberline) hardcover book SIGNED and dated by Dan Rather with "Semper Fi -" written on the half-title page in very good condition in very good dust jacket. Dust jacket has some wrinkling and chipping on the edges and corners, an inch line scratch on the back, tanning and light shelf wear. Book has some bumped corners and small dog-eared pages, some light stains on the page edges, light discoloration and shelf wear. With the energy, integrity, and honesty that have been his trademarks, Dan Rather provides remarkable insight into the news of the world - and the world of news. 9.5"x6.5", 368 pages. Satisfaction Guaranteed. Reporting every night to more than 13 million people on the CBS Evening News, Dan Rather has been called "outrageous, outspoken, but never outclassed." In The Camera Never Blinks Twice he tells exhilarating and thought-provoking tales that provide ample evidence of why he's earned the reputation of premier newsman of his generation. When Dan Rather's now-classic book The Camera Never Blinks was published in 1977, The Washington Post Book World wrote: "The Rather-haters will find plenty to hate. The Rather-lovers will find plenty to love. And those who always ask 'What's Dan Rahter really like?' will have their curiosity satisfied!" Now, seventeen years later, Rather picks up where he left off in The Camera Never Blinks, which sold more than one million copies and spent twenty-four weeks on the New York Times hardcover best-seller list. In The Camera Never Blinks Twice, he narrates spellbinding stories from the front lines of some of the most dramatic events of our times. Rather-lovers, Rather-haters, and those still curious to know more will not be disappointed. In this book, Rather recounts his thrilling trek through Afghanistan after the Soviet invasion in 1980. He provides the full story behind his "confrontation" with Vice President George Bush over the Iran-contra scandal. And from Tiananmen Square to Red Square, from devastating floods in the Midwest to hurricanes in the Atlantic, he takes you with him as he scours the world for breaking stories and shows how and why what we see on our television screens winds up there. Here is his inside account of his interview with Saddam Hussein, the first by any American after the invasion of Kuwait. Here are his candid reflections on returning to Vietnam with General H. Norman Schwarzkopf - the first time back for both men. Here is a chance encounter with Mikhail Gorbachev inside the Kremlin. And here are his observations on the aftermath of the Cold War, the fall of the Wall in Berlin, and the present strife in the former Yugoslavia. Rather laces the narrative with short pieces on subjects ranging from encounters with two very different late-night dictators - Fidel Castro and David Letterman - to the real story behind the so-called "six-minute blackout" in Miami, the night CBS put the pope on hold to finish a tennis match. From Des Moines to Dhahran, from Somalia to Sarajevo, Dan Rather has an eye and ear for the human dimensions of the stories that grip the world. He also knows how to tell riveting tales about television news. In The Camera Never Blinks Twice, Rather pays homage to some of the all-time greats of broadcasting - including Murrow and Sevareid - and to all the courageous journalists who risk their lives to bring home the news. And he doesn't pull any punches in his assessment of world leaders, government officials, the press - or himself. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Signed by Author.
